Black Bathroom Vanity Back in Style

Back in the late 1970s to early 1980s, a black bathroom vanity was relatively common. At this time, people were trying to turn from the “flower power” colors of avocado green, jet set blue, and harvest gold, to something chic. While this color vanity worked well in many homes, the one complaint that surfaced repeatedly had to do with cleaning. It seemed that while the black bathroom vanity looked gorgeous, it scratched, eventually ended up with worn spots, and the shine became dull.

Eventually, the black bathroom vanity started to lose popularity until recently. With new materials and techniques, the sinks now look better than ever while holding up. The great thing about going with black is that it can blend perfectly with any bathroom decorum. For instance, it would not matter if the room were contemporary, Victorian, rustic, or transitional in style.

A beautiful choice for a black bathroom vanity is the vessel sink. The 24-inch stand has a classic shaker look that comes in a white or black finish. In addition, this type of black bathroom vanity is often sold in your choice of marble or granite, both excellent choices. You can also choose a single-hole faucet or have the vanity configured for a wall-mounted faucet. Regardless, the look is classic and rich.

If you prefer something with a contemporary or Asian flair, you could choose a newer style on the market, which is available in different finishes. This black bathroom vanity features a ribbed glass door on one side and a closed cabinet door on the other. This way, you can hide towels and washcloths while using the open side to display beautiful vases or other prized items. You can purchase this type of black bathroom vanity with or without the faucet and a clear basin.

If a streamlined, simplest style is more to your liking, then you will find a number of unique options. In this case, a black bathroom vanity might include a black cabinet with two shelves, stainless steel hardware, front towel rack, wall-mounted faucet that resembles an Oriental deer chaser, and the glass sink. This magnificent design is actually sold at a great price, appearing to be custom made when in fact it comes as a set, considered semi-custom.

When it comes to a black bathroom vanity, there is no comparison to 30 years ago and now. The designs today are simply breathtaking. We see manufacturers working hard to keep up with demand for something unique, which means people can enhance their home with incredible designs but also at an affordable price. Therefore, if you are tired of having a drab looking bathroom and want to make a change, you might consider the fixtures first. While a black bathroom vanity may not be your first consideration, it may certainly be worth researching further.
